Every religion pretty much tells you to go and kill anyone who doesn't believe in it... Every religion also tells you to be kind to everyone... It's not religion that is the problem, it's people, people whose goal is to cause panic and hate throughout... Attacking the Western civilisations causing people to become paranoid and hate the Muslims (because it's the favourite media scapegoat), causing more people to turn towards the causes of the likes of ISIS... It's a neverending cycle of attack and hate... Religion becomes an excuse for people's actions, it should not be seen as the problem here, because that is arguably what these attackers want to happen... What really makes me sick in these incidents is those who in the aftermath use these things to further their own agendas... To further promote the hate and paranoia which is what the attackers want...

More than likely you'll have to get to the park itself in order to purchase the CD, much like with Fluch's soundtrack...

Bill right now:

Is Derren Brown and mind manipulation suitable for all the family? Certainly not in the same way that Loggers is...

That would certainly explain why Lost Temple is superior then... Though given how they're pretty much the same thing (like, ride system wise), that raises some interesting questions...

I feel that the problem is that this isn't just a normal style business, and given how the service from the parks has been going steadily downhill with the recent cuts already being put into place, is cutting more stuff and providing even less of a value for money day out really the answer? Even if the Flumes are being closed for valid reasons, it's not a great look for the parks whatsoever... Especially with other rides being dead or closed for whatever reason...

Mainly cos Forbidden Caves was bloody diabolical...

Chiapas style replacement with inter-twined GCI please... Failing that, an Aquatrax...

You should look up some of the crap I rode elsewhere... Too many +1s, so little time...

Gotta love Merlin's selective theming styles in order to avoid having to bother maintaining the attraction to a decent standard... "Oh it's meant to be falling apart, it's ABANDONED" We're never going to have something like Amity Cove again are we? That was a destruction themed area done so well...

And a Wacky Worm... And the M25 viewing platform...

Here I come to ruin the topic (again), I've ordered the trips in chronological order, hence why some are repeated: Disneyland Paris x4 Walt Disney Studios x4 Old MacDonalds Farm Movieland Studios Mirabilandia Gardaland Plopsaland de Panne Alton Towers Blackpool Pleasure Beach Southport Pleasureland New Brighton Funfair Blackgang Chine Pirates Cove Fun Park Flamingo Park Harbour Park West Sands Fun Fair Funland Amusement Park Clarence Pier Pleasure Island Macks Amusements Dunes Leisure Fantasy Island Bottons Rainbow Park Pettitts Animal Adventure Park Hemsby Fun Park Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach Pavilion Fun Park Tivoli Friheden Djurs Sommerland Farup Sommerland Legoland Billund Tayto Park Dennlys Parc Parc du Bocasse Jardin d'Acclimatation Disneyland Paris Walt Disney Studios Parc Asterix Dreamland Familiepretpark Mini Mundi Speelpark Oud Valkeveen Walibi Holland Julianatoren Efteling x3 BillyBird Park Amusementspark Tivoli DippieDoe Familiepark Toverland Avonturenpark Hellendoorn De Waarbeek Plopsa Indoor Coevorden Attractiepark Slagharen Duinrell Drievliet Plopsa Coo Mondo Verde De Valkenier Plopsa Indoor Hasselt Bobbejaanland Efteling Plopsaland de Panne Nearly 60 unique parks this year is reasonably impressive... Also hit #500 this year to boot at Drievliet...

Think it's one of the rides that also indirectly suffered from the Smiler crash aftermath of making sure everything is safe as hell... Shame, as Terry is a decent thing...

They're already beginning prep by the looks of things: From The Onion

Everything from Tidal Wave to Rumba Rapids basically... Whilst it fits thematically into Amity Cove, it's always been a tad questionable around Calypso, though it doesn't really matter... I don't get the book reference thing...

Everyone's tricked by Baco by thinking it isn't going to be THAT bad surely? Then you ride it, and confuse the survey woman when you give it a 1 because 0 wasn't on her scale...

A building having a second floor does not mean it will be accessible for the public...

That's fine, but it sounds all very within reason and sensible, not from Jamie's stuff (queue properly or just fill up seats)... Gotta balance it, acting like idiots in front of guests regardless of it being your last day is not on...

Gaston has been in my family for a year now:

I agree with Jamie... Though I'm not sure if Thorpe and the others invite returnees back these days, professionalism at all times should be the preferred thing, irrespective of their last day or not...

Remember, it's just a job for these guys, often one that doesn't exactly require historical or factual knowledge to be efficient at... Basic knowledge sure, but I wouldn't expect all staff to know who manufactured Rattlesnake...

Everybody? Most enthusiasts (not on TPM mind) DESPISE the place...

Merlin's obsession with USPs is a big problem... Everything HAS to be easy (read, simple) to market to the masses, presumably because it's easier to get things out there, Derren Brown being involved is a good case in point, as he has a lot of branding in the UK already so it's less work to get the idea across... You know it's going to feature some random psychological aspect (and Merlin aren't letting you forget it either), purely because his name is attached to it... Of course, Merlin aren't the only ones obsessed with it all, plenty of parks go for world's tallest/fastest/boring coaster, but I guess it's mostly due to some of the strangest claims Merlin have pushed forward (IAC/Saw/Thirteen) that we all feel rather skeptical about this... Perhaps if the focus shifted towards getting in confirmed quality over quick gimmicks, things might be a little bit different...

It's a powder and should come under foodstuffs, but we're not the best people to ask on that matter... One thing that makes Efteling tonnes better than any Disney park is the complete lack of screaming children, it's so blissful <3 That's always the problem in parks like these though and doing the whole "ride all the big rides in a day" thing, it does make things extremely difficult to have an enjoyable day... You don't get a chance to really get into the park properly, especially if it's busy (DLP in a day is something I would never suggest, even if the only major ride I missed was BTM, Efteling in a day is just as bad, especially for a newbie)... [/basic] Probably not, but until people start going to places like Efteling/Phannyland/etc then it'll remain highly rated... That said, it's still better than anything the UK parks have to offer in terms of theming quality and general atmosphere... The only REAL bad thing about DLP is the people within... But that could also be said of WDW and DL...
